Playing an instrument requires extended periods of practice to even get the basics down, so the Enya Music Cyber-G Pocket has been engineered to help users get started as quickly as possible. The device looks like a pill-shaped wireless speaker when folded up and not in use, but will unfold to reveal a digital fret board with 14 chord pads alongside a silicone strumming surface. The device can thus be used as an instrument for learning the basics of music playing without the need for a conventional guitar.
The Enya Music Cyber-G Pocket works with an accompanying app to help users choose from more than 15 tone sounds, while also offering access to set music, chord adjustment assignments and more.
